== Installation ==

1. Upload the files to the <em>/wp-content/plugins/cliftons-lightbox/</em> directory 
2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress
3. Go to Settings > Lightbox to setup the lightbox.
4. Preview the lightbox by clicking on the Preview button.
5. After you've set up and previewed the lightbox, enable it from Settings > Lightbox.

== Frequently asked questions ==

First, check if the lightbox is **Enabled**. This is different than Activated. After you've activated the plugin, you will need to set up the plugin at Settings > Lightbox. Once the plugin is setup, you can Enable it.

If you still don't see the lightbox, perhaps you've already set the cookie. Go to Settings > Lightbox and click on the Delete Cookie button. That will delete the cookie preventing the lightbox from appearing.

= Does this lightbox work with GetResponse or Aweber or any other email marketing software? =

In theory, it should work with any email marketing service. I've tested the plugin with GetResponse, Aweber, iContact, MailChimp, and others. The plugin requires the form markup to contain Name and Email fields.

= Can I use a YouTube video? =

Yes, you can set your own image or use a video from YouTube. Videos are a great way to deliver your message to visitors.
